pink iris. macro taken in full sun.
delicate folds, subtle beauty. the pink irises we have are pretty much without stripes. peachy-pink color all over with dark peach beards.

art at tracks.

was hoping for a boom. sales were a bust but met alot of great people and even a fellow etsian. the rail museum is a historic site here in bessemer. got some new photographic material poking around inside. all in all, a really fun day. we even got to have hotdogs from mr. hotdog. yum!

first pic. displays of art

second pic. the shadows and patterns below my feet were interesting

last pic. old cash register from the raimund mines. circa 1918

Friday

pink iris.

pink iris. sepia tone.
pink irises don't photograph well. they don't seem to be of strong constitution. the ones we have start wilting the day after opening. been trying to get a good shot of this for two years now. will keep tying. such a lovely and unique bloomer in our yard. here is what i have as a sepia tone.

photo pendant. yellow dress.

40x30mm setting under acrylic cab.
something a little new for me. getting all the air bubbles out is nigh impossible. i have great admiration for those who have mastered this feat.
